We extend the Hodge atoms framework of Katzarkov--Kontsevich--Pantev--Yu to one-parameter conifold degenerations of Calabi--Yau threefolds. For a degeneration $\pi\colon X \to \Delta$ whose central fiber $X_0$ has $r$ ordinary double…
We study finite-node conifold degenerations of Calabi--Yau threefolds from the point of view of interacting light sectors. Although each ordinary double point contributes a rank-one local vanishing sector, the corrected global object need…
We study a one parameter degeneration of Calabi Yau threefolds whose central fiber contains a single ordinary double point. Using the nearby and vanishing cycle formalism, we construct a canonical perverse object on the singular fiber from…
We study one-parameter conifold degenerations whose central fiber has finitely many ordinary double points and construct a mixed-Hodge-module refinement of the canonical corrected perverse object associated with the degeneration. We build a…
We study one-parameter conifold degenerations whose central fiber has finitely many ordinary double points. Working within a deliberately minimal finite-node bulk/localized-sector formalism, we identify the first categorical layer suggested…
We investigate Hodge-theoretic properties of Calabi-Yau complete intersections $V$ of $r$ semi-ample divisors in $d$-dimensional toric Fano varieties having at most Gorenstein singularities. Our main purpose is to show that the…
We present a classification algorithm for Calabi-Yau complete intersections arising from nef-partitions in fake weighted projective spaces, allowing us to determine all such complete intersections up to dimension five. Furthermore, we…

We establish an orientifold Calabi-Yau threefold database for $h^{1,1}(X) \leq 6$ by considering non-trivial $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ divisor exchange involutions, using a toric Calabi-Yau database (http://www.rossealtman.com/toriccy/). We first…
We construct polarized Calabi--Yau 3-folds with at worst isolated canonical orbifold points in codimension 4 that can be described in terms of the equations of the Segre embedding of $\mathbb P^2 \times \mathbb P^2$ in $\mathbb P^8$. We…
For projective conifold transitions between Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ and $Y$, with $X$ close to $Y$ in the moduli, we show that the combined information provided by the $A$ model (Gromov--Witten theory in all genera) and $B$ model…
We prove a formula for the Hodge numbers of square-free divisors of Calabi-Yau threefold hypersurfaces in toric varieties. Euclidean branes wrapping divisors affect the vacuum structure of Calabi-Yau compactifications of type IIB string…
We consider generalized complete intersection manifolds in the product space of projective spaces, and work out useful aspects pertaining to the cohomology of sheaves over them. First, we present and prove a vanishing theorem on the…
In this article, we summarize combinatorial description of complete intersection Calabi-Yau threefolds in Hibi toric varieties. Such Calabi-Yau threefolds have at worst conifold singularities, and are often smoothable to non-singular…
Calabi-Yau manifolds are important objects in algebraic geometry and in theoretical physics. A hypothesis of mirror symmetry is that Calabi-Yau manifolds of dimension 3 come in pairs, with the Hodge numbers of one manifold mirroring the…
Assuming suitable convergence properties for the Gromov-Witten potential of a Calabi-Yau manifold $X$ one may construct a polarized variation of Hodge structure over the complexified K\"ahler cone of $X$. In this paper we show that, in the…
We formulate and prove a B-model disc level large N duality result for general conifold transitions between compact Calabi-Yau spaces using degenerations of Hodge structures.
In order to support the odd moduli in models of (type IIB) string compactification, we classify the Calabi-Yau threefolds with h^{1,1}<=4 which exhibit pairs of identical divisors, with different line-bundle charges, mapping to each other…
We investigate the relation between the Hodge theory of a smooth subcanonical $n$-dimensional projective variety $X$ and the deformation theory of the affine cone $A_X$ over $X$. We start by identifying $H^{n-1,1}_{\mathrm{prim}}(X)$ as a…
This paper continues the authors' program of studying mirror symmetry via log geometry and toric degenerations, relating affine manifolds with singularities, log Calabi-Yau spaces, and toric degenerations of Calabi-Yaus. The main focus of…
